N is for New Read

Hello Poetteers,

I thought I would give you a break from the poems. I won a twitter giveaway yesterday and got the book DIVIDE by Jessa Russo. Yesterday was also it's release day! Within four hours I started and finished reading it. I thought I should share my review with you.

DivideDivide by Jessa Russo

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I loved this fairytale of a beauty and beast twist. In the beginning I was fine with it but after awhile I grew tired of the sex scenes. Other than that I love seeing all the foreshadowing. I love see all the puzzle pieces and how it came together. The pacing was good. I love how she knew something was in her, that she realized it on time. But the other things came slow but good enough. Along with them you think one thing and it's another thing. The end still came unexpected. It was cool that not just her, but he didn't remember the past.

It reminds me a bit of MY NAME IS MEMORY by Ann Brashares. I hope many readers find this story and love it as much as I did.

Love and thank you, Fida

I've never heard of this book, but it sounds really intriguing! However, I think I would get tired of the sex scenes really early on. It's just not my thing. But I'm glad you enjoyed it, and thanks for putting it on my radar! I'm also going to check out My Name is Memory!
